Estimates for a mid-size hobby machine (Shapeoko, X-Carve, Onefinity class). Scaling all three axes together keeps the depth in proportion; for thinner stock scale Z on its own. Hardwoods with fine grain (cherry, hard maple, walnut, basswood) hold this detail best. Check your exact setup in Will it cut, free, nothing uploaded.

How we estimate carve time

Finishing is one raster pass over the whole carving with the ball nose shown, at 10% stepover and half of a 1,800 mm/min (71 in/min) feed. Roughing assumes about 45% of the block above the base is waste, cleared with the end mill shown at 40% stepover and 3 mm per pass (1.5 mm for the 1/8 in end mill) at the full feed. The model leaves out acceleration, tool changes and moves between passes, so a real job usually takes somewhat longer. Times are rounded to 5 minutes.

Opens directly in Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, ArtCAM and Fusion 360, and in any slicer for 3D printing. For a laser, the relief is first turned into a greyscale depth image, which our Laser Studio app does from this STL. STL only, no OBJ or DXF: the DXF files used in CNC work hold 2D outlines, not the 3D relief surface. Scale it to whatever panel you are cutting. Scaling all three axes together keeps the depth in proportion; scale Z on its own for a shallower carve. How to open it in your software.

About this design

A little log cabin sits in the deep woods, smoke practically rising off the roof, while a creek tumbles over rocks in the foreground and a stand of tall pines leans in close. This is the kind of scene that stops people in a hallway. Carve it once and you will understand why cabin folks and woodworkers keep coming back to mountain landscapes like this one. What you are getting is a high-detail bas-relief STL with real layered depth, from the rough bark on the big foreground fir down to the shingles on the cabin and the broken water spilling over stone. The file is built for clean toolpaths and ready for Aspire, VCarve Pro, Carveco, and ArtCAM, and it runs just as well on a CNC router as it does on a 3D printer. For the best surface, rough it out with a 6mm end mill at 40 percent stepover, then come back and finish with a 3mm ball nose at around 10 percent stepover to pull out the needles, grain, and water detail. Run it in walnut, pine, or maple and you have a piece worth hanging. Great for cabin wall art, lodge plaques, rustic signs, and gifts for the outdoor crowd. This is an instant digital download, so the STL lands in your hands the moment you check out. Commercial use is included, which means you are free to carve these, sell them at shows, or build them into custom orders. Add it to your library, fire up the machine, and give someone a slice of the north woods.

Have a laser too?

Burn this design, or burn onto it

Laser Studio opens this STL with zero conversion and turns them into a ready-to-burn 3D-illusion engrave. Carving on your CNC instead? CNC Match lines up a name, a date or shading on a photo of the finished piece, so the laser burns right onto the carving.
